Enhancing Employee Stress Management Skills in Dealing with Negative News

In this era of information overload, we're often overwhelmed with negative news from TV and the internet. Seeing colleagues' complaint posts or news about company restructuring and layoffs can cause stress and affect our emotions. When facing negative news, we must pay attention to our own and our employees' stress responses for corporate crisis management.

Writing down three things that make you happy each day 

Employee emotional counselling experts suggest writing down three things that make you happy each day or practising mindfulness🧘🏻‍♀️to help release emotions. If you notice stress responses, take a break from related information and rest. Encourage everyone to accept and allow different emotional reactions without comparing with others. Additionally, enhance your value and competitiveness through continuous learning to increase security and maintain competitiveness.

Encourages open discussions

Companies are also encouraged to have open discussions 💬, empathise with colleagues' emotions and needs, and avoid blame. These methods can help us manage stress and maintain mental health. If stress persists or worsens, seeking professional help is recommended.
